The Gange River stretches form the Himalayan Mountains all the way down to The Bay of Bengal. The Ganges River is made up of lots of different rivers. The Ganges is considered sacred by the Hindu.[1] The Ganges also floods often and leaves silt behind, which is a mixture of tiny rocks and dirt. The silt helped them grow crops like rice, wheat, and sometimes bartley. When the Ganges flooded, they sometimes left people stuck on their house: For instance, if your house was on a small hill and it flooded, your house wouldn't be underwater, but you'd be stuck there unless you could swim.
